Gathering for International Overdose Awareness Day 2025
On the eve of International Overdose Awareness Day 2025, join us for a day of remembrance and resistance.
We will honour our loved ones and community members pushed into premature death — sharing stories, art, and life-saving harm reduction skills, including free naloxone training. All are very welcome to this community vigil.
Light refreshments will be provided.
We will also demonstrate how a community-led overdose prevention site could offer safety and protection without coercion and surveillance through another iteration of our pop-up demo overdose prevention site, set up outdoors adjacent to the venue.
In order to help us with managing capacity in the indoor vigil part of this event, please RSVP here.
